Logitech Brio 500

A 1080p webcam that leans on smart software — auto-framing, auto light correction — rather than raw resolution to look good on video calls.

The Logitech Brio 500 caps out at 1080p rather than chasing a 4K spec sheet number, and puts the engineering budget into software that actually improves how you look on a call instead. RightLight 4 continuously adjusts exposure for uneven or poor lighting, and RightSight auto-framing keeps you centered in frame as you move — genuinely useful for anyone who gestures while talking or doesn't sit perfectly still.

A 90° diagonal field of view, adjustable down to 78° or 65°, handles both single-person close-ups and small group shots from one webcam, and the built-in privacy shutter covers the lens physically rather than relying on a software toggle.

Show Mode flips the camera's framing logic to point down at a desk surface — a genuinely useful feature for demonstrating a physical object or sketching on paper during a call, without needing a second camera.
